As far as I can tell, the only way to create a BIAB song in 3/4 time is to select a style that includes "3/4" in the style name. Is that right? If so is there are way to limit the style picker to showing only 3/4 time instead of scrolling down the entire list of styles looking for "3/4" somewhere in the style name?

Thanks.

You can select a 4/4 style but use F5 to change the tempo to 3 beats per measure. It does work with some styles.

In the style list, there should be a whole category named Waltzes. If you don't have that category, make sure you have the latest update. If I recall correctly, it disappeared for a bit, but it's back.

And if you are loading RealTracks, look for "W" in the listings of the RealTracks picker.

Under the style category I scroll down then click "waltz", they pretty much all come up in the window then.

Later,

Great!! Thanks for the fast response. That's much easier than looking through all the style names.

Thanks for that suggestion too. I had never really looked at the style "categories". I have always kept "RealStyles(All)" selected and didn't scroll down any further. I now see "Waltzes" near the bottom of the list.

Often you can just grab a midi track in a 3/4 style, and change it to realtracks and ignore the fact it's in 4/4. Sometimes the result is very good, if not try another.
